Get a Tune-Up

Enhance Acura TSX Performance with a Tune-Up

Is it tune-up time?
If you usually wait until your car has an issue to take it in for service,
now is the time to work on that habit,
especially if you want your 2009 Acura TSX’s engine to last for a long time.
Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your TSX’s power on the road.
They're designed to help your engine start easier and run more efficiently,
which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment).
When you follow the guidelines specified by Acura for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule,
you invest in your TSX's long-term health and engine performance.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Acura TSX

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 2009 Acura TSX.
One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up.
This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*.
The second service focuses on your TSX's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter.
Yet another service is a fuel system cleaning process, which involves removing varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits that have built up inside the fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate in your TSX.
This goes a long way in boosting your fuel system’s overall performance.
Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your TSX: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best.
This means that a tune-up service that’s a great fit for another car may not be optimal for yours.
Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

Questions About 2009 Acura TSX Engine Tune-Ups

What happens if my Acura TSX spark plugs fail?
Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.

What do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Acura TSX?
Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.

Are hard starts and stops bad for my Acura TSX engine?
Hard stops and starts can lead to premature wear on your engine’s components. Lighten up that lead foot and opt for steady, fluid starts and stops instead. Your engine (and your passengers!) will thank you.
